Causes of White, Yellow or Orange Bleach Spots on Carpet
The number one most common cause for a bleach spot is bleach. Bleach is a common household product that can kill mold, bacteria, germs, and viruses. Even though bleach is a great surface cleaner, it cannot be used on carpet or fabric without harmful results. Bleach can cause the dye compounds to break down and the color completely dissipates. Bleach and chlorine both have the same effect on carpet dye. Bleach and chlorine can be found in a number of other cleaning chemicals that are sometimes misused on the carpet. However, bleach spots can also be caused by other, more natural sources. Sunlight can cause the carpet to lighten up over time until there is no more pigment left in the carpet. At times sunlight will come through a small part of a window causing a small bleach spot. Another cause for bleach spot is urine stains. Some carpet can develop a bleach spot due to the ammonia in urine. As many pet owners well know, pets will have the tendency to potty in the same spot. Due to constant exposure to ammonia, it can result in a bleach spot. With the number of different bleaching elements out there, it comes as no surprise that bleach spots are a common problem.
